Senior Sisters, I Don’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 436: Rules of Flipping the Sign

In the storeroom behind the palace, Bai Qingyu, with her picturesque features and inner elegance, sat behind a large purple jade table, carefully reading the jade scrolls and books in front of her. She wore a light purple palace dress, adorned with intricate and exquisite patterns of flowers and birds, which gently swayed like a pearl hairpin on her cloud-like hair, creating circles of shimmering light and shadow.

Surrounding her were groups of high-ranking female cultivators, ranging from Golden Immortals to Great Principle realm. Each of them had beautiful appearances and gorgeous dresses. Leading them was Mu Xiner, the chief maid beside Qin Muling, and also present were Mei Qingfeng and Lan Yifei.

After a moment, Bai Qingyu slightly raised her head, her clear and melodious voice carrying a faint dignity, "These recent accounts seem to have no major issues, but... we still need to verify them carefully."

Mu Xiner smiled lightly, "Since Senior Sister Bai said so, let's go to the storeroom together!"

Bai Qingyu nodded gently and said to the female immortals around her, "Indeed, although Senior Brother Qin's wealth and resources are increasing, he rarely pays attention to them himself. But don't think you can deceive him. Once something goes wrong and the Supreme Sect Master finds out, no one can save you!"

"Senior Sister Bai, you're overthinking it. How could we dare?" The female immortals spoke one after another, their tone clearly showing their desire to please. Regardless of their cultivation level, Bai Qingyu was highly favored by the Saint Child, so naturally no one dared to neglect her. If she casually mentioned something to him, it would be enough to make them suffer.

So, a Great Principal Golden Immortal who served as the elder in charge led the way, and the group of beautiful female immortals walked into the depths of the storeroom.

Although it was called a storeroom, it was actually a separate Grotto-Heaven world. The area of tens of thousands of miles was filled to the brim with various objects, including the floor, shelves, boxes, and chests, all made of rare spirit jade, spirit gold, and precious wood. With Qin Muling's identity, the Divine Phoenix Palace and the Buddha Domain Pure Land could send him a large amount of rare resources without hesitation.

Of course, those female immortals who were eagerly hoping to get closer to Qin Muling also spared no effort in giving him various benefits. It could be said that they showered him with gifts.

Similar Grotto-Heaven worlds could be found in hundreds of places in Qin Muling's dojo, and they were already running out of space. Therefore, Mu Yinghua had instructed the elders of the Heavenly Craft Hall to continue building more, ensuring that everything was done properly and efficiently.

As the sole legal heir of the Female Cultivators Union Alliance, Qin Muling's current wealth could be said to be the most abundant, surpassing even the top experts of the Divine Phoenix Palace and the Buddha Domain Pure Land.

In the Grotto-Heaven world, as the layers of formations and restrictions were opened, bright treasure lights filled the vision of the female immortals. On the tall sandalwood shelves, there were neatly arranged exquisite boxes, bottles, and jars of various sizes, each with different regulations. Even if one casually took something out, it would be a priceless treasure.

Groups of Perfected Being Realm and True Self Realm female cultivators were busy inside, comparing the names on the jade scrolls with the corresponding resources, and then putting them into spatial Law Weapons, ready for the senior sisters to come and use them.

Qin Muling has not closed off now, so there is a considerable consumption of various rare ingredients, spirit wine, spirit rice, and other precious medicines. In addition, he often entertains his senior sisters. Therefore, these outer disciples who came to help out are not idle. Every day, several batches of resources are taken and transported according to the process.

Bai Qingyu looked around and didn't find any problems, so she casually gave a few instructions and turned to walk towards the entrance.

Not far away, an elder steward was giving orders, "Prepare fifty pots of 'Wanzai Mingxuan', 'Kong Qingyuyu', and 'Chanyu Hanquan' spirit wines each. These are the types that Saint Child specifically requested. Be careful and meticulous in your actions. Su Senior Sister has already sent someone to urge you..."

Before the words fell, there was a muffled sound followed by a frightened cry. Then, the elder steward angrily rebuked, "What's going on? Do you know how precious this jar of wine is? Even if you sell yourselves, you won't be able to compensate for it!"

"Steward, this wine jar is too heavy. Our cultivation is limited, and we couldn't hold it steady for a moment..." a timid voice of explanation sounded.

"Hmph, a group of clumsy fools! If you dare to be careless again, you don't need to work here anymore. There are plenty of people outside who want to come in..." the elder steward scolded angrily.

"What's going on?" Bai Qingyu walked over and saw a nine-foot-tall jar of purple ink and real gold wine tilted on the ground. The seal on the mouth of the jar was shimmering with a faint spiritual light, and there was no sign of damage. Several empty curved-neck spirit jade wine pots were scattered nearby, surrounded by a few anxious and uneasy female disciples in green shirts. They were all outer disciples on duty here.

When the furious female elder steward saw her, her expression immediately changed, and she smiled and said, "Senior Sister Bai, these foolish girls were not careful while working and almost spilled this jar of spirit wine. They have caused you trouble!"

Bai Qingyu glanced at them and said gently, "It's alright. It's just that the Law Weapon containing the wine is too heavy. Their cultivation is still low, so it's normal that they can't move it. Don't blame them."

"Yes, Senior Sister Bai."

The elder steward breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head, and glared at the group of outer disciples, meaning that they were lucky today.

"Alright, I have to go see Saint Child now. Let me take these spirit wines with me!" Bai Qingyu said, and the elder steward naturally didn't dare to neglect. She immediately personally handled everything properly and finally handed over the spatial Law Weapon containing the various spirit wines to her.

Leaving the warehouse, Bai Qingyu returned to the side hall next to the flower hall in the inner courtyard. A group of maidservants were whispering around a spirit crystal tray on the table, and on the tray were neatly arranged exquisite jade plaques, engraved with the names of many female immortals from different sects and forces. Of course, according to convention, there were always the most senior and junior sisters from Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.

Bai Qingyu glanced over and casually asked, "Which senior sisters did Senior Brother Qin flip this time?"

"Not yet!" A maid quickly replied, "His Highness Saint Child is talking to the senior sisters inside and has not yet decided which senior sisters he will cultivate with next."

"I see..." Bai Qingyu walked over and scanned the area. Her dark eyebrows slightly furrowed as she felt that there were more female immortals from Divine Phoenix Palace and Buddha Domain Pure Land on the tray this time. However, the senior sisters from Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace had their nameplates placed prominently in the middle, so there was nothing to worry about.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Qingyu reached out her jade hand to adjust the placement of the jade nameplates, but she was stopped by a maid next to her. "Senior Sister Bai, that's against the rules. Please don't put us in a difficult position."

"Alright then." Bai Qingyu reluctantly gave up the idea. After all, with so many eyes watching, no one could cheat.

As she walked into the flower hall of the inner courtyard, Senior Sister Xue Bingxuan, Qi Yalan, Luo Huan, Princess Long Yi, Qingchan Fairy, and Luo Qinghan were all present. The room was filled with beauty and charm, and the flowers seemed to dazzle the eyes.

"...The peaceful time won't last long. Soon, we will face a joint attack from numerous Transcendent Level forces," Qin Muling, who was in the main seat, said solemnly to the senior sisters around her. "Our Master has already started preparing, and you should also be prepared. There is no chance for negotiation this time. It will only result in life or death!"

Qin Muling did not hide the possibility of war between the Female Cultivators Union Alliance and other Transcendent Level forces in the future. She took this opportunity to explain the situation to the senior sisters.

Feng Xia, the little phoenix, asked softly, "Since a full-scale war is inevitable, many senior sisters will probably fall, right?"

"That's for sure," Princess Long Yi sighed lightly. With the joint attack of dozens of Transcendent Level forces, it would be impossible to resist under normal circumstances. However, with Qin Muling present, there might still be a chance.

Emperor Tong Ying, who was beautiful and elegant, thought for a moment and said, "How much time can we buy at most? They also need time to consolidate, so the arrival of a full-scale war should be after the Unified Harmony of the two realms, right?"

Qin Muling nodded, "I think so too, but compared to the strength of the enemy, this preparation time is probably not enough."

The Unified Harmony of the two realms was less than forty years away. For immortal beings with long lifespans, it could be said that even a short nap would not be enough.

Xue Bingxuan, who was elegant and dignified, smiled, "Since that's the case, it's useless to think too much. Instead of worrying, it's better to let Junior Brother accompany us in practicing and try to improve our strength as much as possible."

"That's right. As long as we all achieve the cultivation of cutting off the Three Corpses Incarnation, our chances of safely passing through this calamity will be much greater, won't they?"

Su Yuanzhen, who was enchanting and beautiful, smiled and agreed. She had already cut off her Virtuous Thought Incarnation and was not far from cutting off the Three Corpses Incarnation. Naturally, she wanted to make further progress as soon as possible.

"Alright, let's go practice now and have them all come over," Qin Muling said. The leader of the maids, Mu Xiner, waved her hand, and soon a square tray made of spiritual gold, several feet in size, was brought in by the maids and presented to Qin Muling.

The flower hall in the inner courtyard suddenly fell silent, and the expectant gazes of the senior sisters focused on Qin Muling.

The exquisite jade nameplates on the tray were neatly arranged. Each jade nameplate was a Law Weapon refined with concentration. There were not just one name on each, but twenty-four, all from the same sect.

According to tradition, Qin Muling could choose one, multiple, or leave them all.

Usually, with Qin Muling's nature, she would never choose just one if she could choose multiple. After all, the "Paradise of Utmost Bliss" domain was large enough to accommodate as many senior sisters as possible.

Especially now, Qin Muling could openly hold a gathering, as they all needed to improve their cultivation as soon as possible.

"Alright, let's stick to the old rules and keep them all!" Qin Muling said.

The senior sisters couldn't help but rejoice and got up one after another to prepare.

This chapter is a bit short, mainly because some content has been omitted. I will make up for it next time.
